Did Ashley Accept Deal Or Did Andy Ask For A Transfer?

10:00 pm, Monday, January 31st, 2011 by Ed Harrison · 453 Comments

Newcastle have announced that Andy Carroll is in talks with Liverpool, after handing in a transfer request this afternoon, and the loan deal for Stephen Ireland has finally been completed.

Stephen Ireland – on a season long loan deal

Newcastle released a short statement about Stephen, saying the loan deal had been completed, after there were some earlier scares about a medical condition that could have scuttled the deal.

Maybe this is a deal that will make Newcastle manager Alan Pardew upbeat about today’s events, as he said about the signing:

“Stephen has shown over the past few seasons that he’s a real top player so we’re really pleased to have got him until the end of the season.”
“As a creative midfielder he can create chances for others and score goals himself, and we think he can be a big factor for us in the second part of this season.”
“I think Stephen feels he can deliver more than he’s shown at Villa so far, so he’s got a point to prove and I believe we can reap the benefits of that.”

And Newcastle released a statement about their 22 year-old local striker Andy Carroll, which said:

“A transfer request from striker Andy Carroll has been accepted by Newcastle United.”
“The 22-year-old England international has this afternoon handed in a transfer request, which has reluctantly been accepted by the club.”
“And Carroll is currently in talks with Liverpool over a move to Anfield. ”

What is not said in the statement is what has been widely reported, that Newcastle accepted a transfer bid of £35M from Liverpool for the Gateshead-born striker.

Players are not allowed to speak about personal terms, until a deal has first been reached between the two clubs. But it seems true that Andy Carroll handed in a transfer request, and to say we are shocked at that, is a huge understatement.

We’ll need to understand exactly what happened with this deal, because there have been some conflicting stories coming out of Sky Sports today about the deal. There were reports Newcastle accepted a £35M deal for the player, which was Liverpool’s second bid, but then they said the second bid had been turned down.

After that Sky Sports reported that Andy had finally requested a transfer – which seemed just a little too convenient for the Newcastle hierarchy, so exactly what did happen is still not clear to us.

Did Ashley accept the deal first or did Andy Carroll force the deal by putting in a transfer request?

Needless to say we are shocked and sorry to see local boy Andy Carroll presumably want to leave the club, and leave in such terrible circumstances, with just hours to go in the transfer window.

We’ve got to think Alan Pardew is simply shocked and saddened at what has happened today, since he has often said Andy Carroll is the future of Newcastle.

Well - if that’s true we don’t have a future – because the lad’s done a bunk.

We need a good night’s sleep, because this is not what we expected today – that’s for sure – and quite honestly we are still in some shock at today’s events. Oh yes, and we have about 70 minutes left to get a new striker in, to replace Andy.

Comments welcome.

Cannot see anything happening into toon.
5 Thump // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:07 PM
Nobody is coming in, unless Ronaldo or Messi has decided they’d look cracking in the black and white.
6 JohnNUFC // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:07 PM
This is confusing the hell out of me
Why sell the ‘pool?
Would have made more sense to sell AC to Spurs for less money and take Keane/Crouch/Pav as the makeweight.
7 archaeomag // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:08 PM
Everybody @5live incl. Harry@Spurs says the club have been trying to flog Carroll throughout the window.
We are always the last to find out!
So he was pushed as much as he jumped, they have minutes left to find some cover.
8 JohnnyBrookes // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:10 PM
F*****g hell the Scouse rats have already got a song about “Liverpool’s number 9″
Proper sickener.
9 Jarra // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:10 PM
So many ups and downs over the many years I have followed Newcastle United, one thing has never changed my love for the Toon.
It is so dissapointing when a local lad who had the potential to live the dream has cashed in and followed the greed.
Sod the money I’m proud to be a geordie and will shout even louder Howay The Lads.
10 GAZ09 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:10 PM
Great Transfer window this has been Loan out Routledge sell Carroll and bring in out of form injured Ireland
11 Thump // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:11 PM
Harry has, supposedly, spoke a lot of truth so far. He was laughing at the concept of a “transfer request” on SSN earlier and frankly I see why he is laughing. It’s an absolute disgrace – by everyone involved.
David Craig: “And I have been asked to stress the word ‘reluctantly’ the board have accepted the transfer request”
The man doth protest too much…
12 Edd Case // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:11 PM
Doesnt the LOAN window stay open until mid Feb or something?
I’m sure we can still loan players in after the window closes.
13 Sawbuck // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:12 PM
Ashley and Llambias have been waiting at the points with a crowbar to derail the club!
Now they have leapt on the wrecked carriages to plunder the freight!
And the ‘good business’ brigade come running forward to tell how we have enough to stay up.
How pitiful it all is.

15 JohnnyBrookes // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:12 PM
Thump – spot on mate.
He said it about 50 times during the time he was explaining it. Its clearly bullshit, how about reluctantly turning it down,it was clearly not true, just a way to save face.
16 yskel // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:13 PM
SIGHS
Carroll just signed a new 5 year deal as part of that he would have a loyalty clause. Those clauses are written so that if the club decides to sell the player then he will get a loyalty payment (normally half the amount of wages in the remainder of their contract)
By Handing in a transfer request Andy has saved newcastle money.
Good Luck Andy

18 leedodd // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:14 PM
Just watch Next Thing Andy Carroll Will Be Done For GBH and Locked Up as he Doesn’t have Kevin Nolan To Wipe His Bum For Him. Steve G Wont Help Him Like Kev Nolan does. Go Andy and Don’t Come Back. Is he to Thick to realise He will Be Hated so Much Now !!!!!!!!!! Fat Ashley Derek Lambias and Now Andy Carroll 3 Hated People By The Geordie Nation. What Must Chris Hughton Be Thinking Now ?? Probably Thank God He Was Sacked Then and Not Here today !!!!!!

We are more than just a name on the back of a shirt, we are Newcastle United Football Club, We are a legacy!!!!
20 ochytoon // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:15 PM
Puncheon would have solved our winger problem for the rest of season. Ready for a bullshit excuse 2morrow. We were unable to agree fees with multiple clubs because they were charging extravagant prices. In other words. We sold AC with 6 hours of transfer window and forgot to get a replacement, soz
21 Oba // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:15 PM
Nelson Valdez on the way.
22 newcastle29 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:15 PM
edd case.
it shuts for the prem, open for 2 weeks after for clubs outside the prem.
23 Whitecap // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:15 PM
Maybe Carroll doesn’t like Pardew and is still upset about Hughton getting the sack.
24 geist // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:15 PM
edd case, the loan window is only for football league clubs.
25 NUFC_Richyg01 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:16 PM
Who the hell is Nelson Valdez? Wheres that story from??
26 Timmers09 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:17 PM
Maybe he’s doing a big F you to Liverpool let them sell Torres and then go nah I wanna go back to toon, see ya!
27 ochytoon // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:17 PM
BBC reckon club working hard to get late deal pushed through. If they do then I take back what I said
28 StuW // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:17 PM
The kick in the balls will be Kenny handing Andy the Liverpool no9 shirt.
29 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:17 PM
Edd case.. the loans is only for Championship and downwards.. Premier league everything slams shut at 11pm but if thaz a deal agreed and what not we can technically sign him tomorrow just everythings got to be faxed off too the FA tonight
30 Oba // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
Nelson Haedo Valdez. From Hercules.
Paraguayan striker.
31 NUFC_Richyg01 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
Still no confirmation of Carroll signing for Liverpoo or Torres to Chelski.
32 Thump // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
@Whitecap: I suggested that earlier and got a barrage of abuse.
33 NUFC_Richyg01 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
International Transfer window shuts at 12PM
34 archaeomag // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
Well, it certainly puts all the Sh*t in the papers in perspective, all the players that were coming – the wide players to supply AC, etc.. .
35 normag // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
Carroll is a big headed p£££k!
36 NUFC_Richyg01 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:19 PM
@ archaeomag // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:18 PM
Yep. We dont need wingers now, we have noone for them to cross to!
37 Whitecap // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:19 PM
@Thump. I think it is plausible. Carroll became a top striker under Hughton and Pardew has been known to rub people the wrong way.
38 GAZ09 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:20 PM
lol @ Timmers09 that would be great

Johnnufc @ 6
good point but am beginning to believe the rumours about Ashley putting Carroll’s name out there in Jan (has to be true Lamb chops redknapp said it)… He was always going to leave, just wish he didn’t look so happy about it…
Has Torres gone yet?????
If not Carroll is a bench warmer for rest of season the chump
47 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:21 PM
archaeomag… Around wor Benny Arfa
48 lou9brasil // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:21 PM
By the way “he that shall not be named” handed in a transfer request, if Newcastle were lying about this fact Carroll will be shouting about it in the papers and could probably sue for defamation or something along them lines.. Ashley may be a lot of things but he isn’t gonna lie about this knowing that the player could just turn around and say Ashley is talking bullshite!!
49 kevymartins // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:22 PM
I posted on the other story andy carroll’s wiki
when it said he was playing for liverpool
but now its went back to newcastle???
50 Malaysia-RASHID // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:22 PM
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha…no matter how long the transfer window, we don’t have replacement, out there, who can be best strikers?
if there a person as good as carroll or better than him available, poo will not came to us, 35m to big even Villa not cost that much.
we can’t attract anyone as long as cockney regime is here.
KK and shearer already say that.

@gaz09 gotta think that now as my rage has festered to some sort of joker like maniacal laughing as I cannot comprehend our club anymore. I think if puma/Ashley/pardew say we’re going back to our traditional red and White stripes is the last thing they can do to fully piss every1 off.

I can’t see any other club in the world letting a top striker go without time to replace them. Who in their right mind is gonna let us have anyone half decent at this time?
Another small point – but if we were selling AC to the ‘pool why not pull the plug on Konchesky’s loan move to Forest and bring him up here on loan as LB cover which we need? Just a thought

As I suggested on the “Biggest Transfer Blunder Newcastle will ever make”, Pardew should now resign.

If we sign that twat even considering the good season he’s having I’ll be really depressed. We need a striker not another winger both would be nice but a striker has to be the priority after the Carroll sale!!!

N’Zogbia is a superb player guys. I know Wigan told Sunderland £12m would be enough to get N’Zogbia at the start of January but it will be a different story now with so little time left. In the summer, I would offer £22 and we could get both N’Zogbia and Rodallega.

A token bid rejected for insomnia!! Good point from Ssn- Carroll was as important to us as Torres was to Pool. But yet they buy before they allow there player to talk to another club. How has Ashley made money with his business acumen? He’s made a monumental error. Xisco and Carroll gone and 3 bog standard strikers left with no striker to provide knock downs to Nolan! Relegation looms!

back to the origional question did MA push or did AC request?
even if carroll was offered a sweetner to put in a request, he would still have wanted to put in the request … He could just as easily have come out and say he didnt want to leave but …and this is vital… he put in a transfer request!
No respect for the man now.

I do believe it tbh, it isn’t exactly hard to believe, Ashley is full of shit and this is pure posturing. Liverpool only let Torres go with a replacement lined up, Ashley wanted the money, so left it this late, a few token bids wont change that.

I can almost write Alan Pardew’s statement tomorrow:
We wanted to keep the lad but his head was turned (nothing to do with touting him around for the past two weeks);
We tried to get in a quality replacement, but at such short notice it was going to be difficult (no one of any note signs)
What he should say: I have resigned because I have been lied to by the owner and Chairman and I cannot have my position undermined in this manner.
227 geoff777 // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:42 PM
magpie999 there’ll be some big cheers in the boardroom if he passes the medical.
Great day for Liverpool.
They converted the negative of losing their top striker into a master-stroke to create a lethal pairing of Carroll and Suarez. For only £8.8million.
Kudos Kenny.
Shame Ashley didn’t have the vision.
Now I’m left with horrible nagging thoughts of what might have been.
Once again thanks a lot Mike Ashley.

234 free giveaways // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:42 PM
Andy Carroll was forced out of the club. Ashley and Lambais told him to leave. The transfer request is a smoke screen, he is actually doing us a favor by waiving his signing on fee by handing in a transfer request.
We now want to sign Nelson Valdez and N’Zogbia but there isn’t much time to complete the deals. N’Zogbia definitely won’t happen tonight. Valdez might, but it’s a small possibility.

I hope the true fans who turn up every week now realise just what the woner thinks if them & that at the Asenal game the stadium is empty.

283 geordieforeva // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:50 PM
Ed – get over it. Did you honestly think Carroll was going to stay beyond 2 years at Newcastle. There is no more loyalty in football. Its a results business as SAF says. As dismayed as I am at seeing Andy go… I view it as a fine fine piece of business. 35m+addons – I dont think our entire 1st team would sell for that much.
Now the root of the problem is that over the years with sh***e managers and players walking through the St. James door, the club has lost its big club mentality. Jason Punchoeon, Jay Bothroyd… wat kind of 3rd rate crap are we after. 1st off what is the god damned ambition of this club. Dont tell me Europe in 5 years. We can make it in two if we use some common sense. Look at this season, look how we have played with such spirit.
HBA, Gosling and Ireland are positive moves but with all of them knackered in the knee, there is no guarantee.
I’d say we actually short sold on Andy and should have milked out another 5m from Liverpool. However, 35million is a super amt as long as Ashley invests it in the squad and does not throw it away at the craps table.
And yes… lets stop bickering about the transfer request. Andy would be stupid to turn down an ambitious club like Liverpool for home. He’s 22, at least 12 years ahead of him. I would’nt rot at Newcastle as we don’t have ambition. Kieran Westwood, Jason Puncheon… my arse.
Shame on us… Mackems got Muntari (a class act!) and Sessagon.

Right now we have 4 strikers, one can’t hit the net and is focused on his gangsta image. The other has sadly proved he can’t cut it at prem level anymore after his dedication last year. Another still needs to adjust from championship to premiership, and the other is Ameobi

GeordieGerman .. agreed .. means we’ll not push on until the summer barring a revelation by ben arfa .. still if the money is invested in the summer .. big if, then we may be doing ok .. I still think carroll isn’t worth 37 (quoted from bbc) but hate that fat ash has the money and will have it spent in casinos or pie shops before the summer.
300 jimiley // Jan 31, 2011 at 10:52 PM
Pardew statement on Sky Sports “We are terribly sorry to lose Andy Carroll but the money was just too much to turn down. Everyone at NUFC wishes him the best and the owner is drowning his sorrows down the casino. He has promised me he won’t fritter away more than 27 million on the tables because he realizes he needs 3 million for a striker in the summer. I would also like to apolgize for getting rid of four players when I said I would be bringing players in. We tried our best but the bottom line is that we would not pay the transfer fee or the wages so we missed our targets. I want to assure all Toon fans that this club has ambition and with the support of the owner we can build a massive casino. The club is committed to bringing in loan players on cheap wages or youngsters who we will develop and then sell on at a massive profit so that the owner has enough gambling cash. He has promised me that he will limit his losses to one million in a night. That must reassure all Toon fans. The club is committed to be a selling club and being profitable for the owner. There is no way the owner will sell this club while he can asset strip at such a vast rate. I shall strive to bring in the best youngsters, loans and crocks like Ireland and Gosling in the summer. No money will be wasted on quality players. The owner and the fans are going in the same direction. I am looking forward to the Fulham game. Goodnight.”

Dear Mr Ashley
You have completey f*cked up my club that I have support man & boy since 1955. How the f*ck does selling your number 1 asset 6 hours before the end of the transfer window without a replacement lined up. Even if Carroll wanted to leave (which I don’t believe for one minute) you could have said no he would have to wait until the summer. But no its grab the money & run & screw the fans.
I’m finished with the Toon until you & your cronies have gone for good.

I’m hurt by our club, I have been angry annoyed bitter etc over the years and aside from when we got relegated I don’t think I have ever been as ashamed of our football club as I am right at this moment.
That said though I think we need to reflect on what we do have and what we have is a squad of players who are loyal to the cause and are willing to fight to retain our club’s status in the Premier League. AC has deserted us when we needed him most, he should be ashamed of himself.

Maybe things will look brighter in the morning… oh shit. Nevermind. Ameobi our best striker, sorry Shola, but you’ll still be just as lazy. Now you know you have no competition for the first place striker, so you’ll get even lazier…. The ups and downs us Newcastle fans have is unreal.

Ashley is really not that clever a business man.
He is saying to every fan I want a mid table club but only one that’ll make me money or at least recover all my claimed losses before I sell the club on. The rot started when Bobby was sacked and it’s pretty much been downhill ever since.(just a few hiccups)
The club owners have sold Toon short for many years and though AC is a risky buy at £35m – who will replace him ?
Don’t blame Pardew for this – he’s out of the frame – it is an owner decision. Ashley has always treated his managers like hartlepool monkeys.
It’s 22:59 and we have no class act striker any more.
364 sweendog // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:00 PM

395 JP...from The Rock // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:07 PM
It’s over… I am disgusted SSN timing to the deadline was wrong, I had some stupid hope we might pull off a striker in the last seconds. What a joke we are again! Charles Insomnia 12M WTF if that’s the sort of ambition we have to look forward to in the summer IF we’re still in the premiership we might as well call it a day now.

398 coolcatcarter89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:07 PM
In every tragedy there is comedy. What leaves me flummoxed and laughing is, the complete lack of imagination. “Alan, Alan, you’ve got £15m to spend on a player.” “Erm, erm, wasn’t N’zogbia here once?” What the f£ck have these clowns being doing the past month?
399 juliogeordio // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:08 PM
I’m sure they’re gutted in the board room

your not wrong mate, but whats aplayer to do if he is told to go?
make the most of it?
401 AndyE93 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:08 PM
Could’ve been worse, we could have sold Barton, Tiote and Enrique aswell. We still have the building blocks for a good squad with Ben Arfa coming back in and 35 million plus to be spending in the summer. Keep the faith lads. KEEP THE FAITH!
402 DarloGeordie // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:08 PM
Has Barton signed yet or has he thought F u ck this am offski in the summer????
403 juliogeordio // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:08 PM
disgused yet again with the running of what was our club
404 ochytoon // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:08 PM
Hey everyone, guess what number Carroll’s got at Liverpool
405 sweendog // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:08 PM

u all asked who my source was now u know
407 sweendog // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:10 PM
AndyE93 .. exactly carroll was one of around 7 class players in the newcastle squad .. he’s not my favourite ..
Collo/Bull/Tiote/Arfa/Barton to name a few
408 PK-Norway // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:10 PM
Spend in summer? IF WE STAY UP

toonruz .. he could have said no .. he’s no angel in this .. shame he deserted us .. well its in the past he’s a scouser now ..
413 dubzy // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:12 PM
HE WAS NEVER GUNNA SPEND THE MONEY
414 Angryman the Angry fan // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:13 PM
The fat c11nt will NOT reinvest all in summer!!
Scum!! All of them……
Scum
415 AndyE93 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:14 PM
Why are we all panicking so much! Saying we are heading for the drop. The team has been playing good football and creating chances galore without Carroll in the squad! I think Ranger and Best may come good and Shola is surely due a run of form at some point in his career! Total confidence that we’ll stay up. And if not i’ll eat my cat!
416 sweendog // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:14 PM
dubzy .. think thats a proven now .. he new he was selling and didn’t get a replacement .. all the zog stuff was a smokescreen .. even ireland spells of desperation .. can’t wait think the fat boy and his mates disappear..
417 ochytoon // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:15 PM
Oh, I have an idea, lets have MA take a huge shit on all of us and not do anything about cos thats whats been happening the last few years.Lets take a lesson from the Egyptians and f****k his shit up!
418 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:15 PM
oh well, f*cking hate our board and hope they rot in hell.. if we dont have atleast £40 million in summer then we may aswel just giv up.. seriously doubting whether i want to renew my season ticket now we aint going anywher hes just taking our money and laughing his way to the bank hes actually taking the p*ss out of us loyal supporters who pay very good money to see our team play.. Ive heard Carroll put a transfer request in 2 weeks ago, Also heard Nolan and Barton are seriously considering they futures.! hope barton stays especially.. Nolan is captain fantastic…
looks like we’ll be relying on 2 unproven premier league strikers and 2 strikers who cant hack it week in week out oh and 1 of them is seriously injury prone.!
419 Angryman the Angry fan // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:15 PM

422 sweendog // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:16 PM
AndyE93 .. just a minority are .. most would rather barton stayed .. likewise the bull .. key positions, and these boys are world beaters .. still we’re not as strong without carroll ..
423 beardsleyschin // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:17 PM
Back to the Gordon McKeag era
424 sweendog // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:17 PM
wonder what barton will make of carroll when we play them at anfield .. think he may get a few knocks..
425 AndyE93 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:19 PM
Sweendog I agree it makes us weaker in the short term but in the long term this money plus a bit more could see us becoming a top 6 side again and being recognised as a stable, solid club with players wanting to play for the team. Let’s hope the other lads can step up.
426 ochytoon // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:20 PM
Y do people seem to forget that we have loads of injurys!!!!!!!!!!!!
427 nuckingfuts // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:21 PM
20/1 Toon to be relegated on Betfair. Just made my bet.
Appalled…..
Hope to God I lose.
428 donegalmag // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:21 PM
andy andy andy, you could have had pride of place on eds banner for years to come,but you chose to join those scouser scum….you think stevie g will want you to live with him, one look at his wife and youl think your in….you are a money grabin tool, you knew the fans would blame the club for pushin you out and you would get away wif it, well i for one am neither fooled or empressed, as we have said on this blog before if you think your better than the shirt, we dont want you..the legacy of this club will live on when your childish arogance is long forgotten…..HOWAY THE TRUE LADS…
429 DarloGeordie // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:23 PM
20/1
might give that a go but still dont think it will happen, or hope should be the word used
430 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:25 PM
bit harsh but anyone else not think Carroll and Suarez is a pretty scary strike force
431 obaflamey // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:27 PM
Yes Carroll is a huge loss, noone can deny that, but our main focus now is survival. We,re in a good position and have done well so far this year without AC. We need 4 wins and we should be fine. We should be able to do that easily even with our lack of firepower. We really need to get behind the team now; theyre obviously not going to be happy that Andy has gone. Yes we were well on course for a top ten finish, but as long as we stay in the PL then that would constitute a successful season. As long as we succeed in that then we’ll just have to wait and see if we get significant investment in the summer. This has been a terrible day for us granted, but £35 million is still a good deal for us. We need to forget about it as hard as it may be and support the team……
432 dubzy // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:27 PM
OFF 2 BED LADS WOT A SH*T DAY NOT HAPPY,HOPE ASHLEY DIES IN HIS SLEEP…………CHIN UP.H.W.T.L
433 DarloGeordie // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:27 PM
not as good as Torres n Drogba/Anelka
434 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:27 PM
i hate El Hadji Diouf
435 boater // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:28 PM
Hughton sacked – uproar. I remember the jokes at the time about how the club will be selling Carroll next. No one is laughing now
I agree the massive fee was hard to turn down, but why did the domino effect end at newcastle AGAIN, no replacement brought in. Everyone else acquire new key signings, we have moved backwards yet again.
436 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:29 PM
A think Carroll and Torres would be best like
437 gndtoon // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:29 PM
Ricky van Wolfswinkel – 15 mill
Conner – 6 mill.(17yrs old mind you) these two and we’d be sorted
carroll will never be a geordie 9 like the legend shearer was
438 donegalmag // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:30 PM
diouf will get plenty of abuse in his first game this week against celtic…remember the spitting incident wif liverpool, see how much he thrives on the boos that day…PL is a better place without that tool…
439 DarloGeordie // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:31 PM
Nah Best and Ameobi beats:
- Carroll /Torres
- Drogba/Torres
any day lol
440 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:31 PM
we had a loan bid rejected for Shaun Wright Phillips earlier on
441 GeordieDan // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:34 PM
Fu*K the window, fu*k Liverpool, fu*ck Mike A$hley and most of all FU*K Carroll the traitorous selfish basta*d!
How could he slap in a transfer request? Beggars belief. What a complete sell-out tw*t!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
442 borgieman9 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:34 PM
Last post on this site ever. I´ve had enough of Assley. Can not stand this demolition of Newcastle.
It´s breaking my hearth to see the official news on the liverpool website.
The brick that we should be building our new super team around is now gone, and soon all the other will follow. We will end up with Ameobi and Smith.
Goodbye Newcastle.
443 GeordieToon89 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:35 PM
he’l score a shed load in scotland
hopefully ranger might get his act together aswel if not ad get shot of him dont care how much potential he’s got.. wonder what the odds are on Best finishing on double figures
444 john_cena163 // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:38 PM
Saurez an carroll 2 flop signing for liverpool for sure
445 ToonOz // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:39 PM
So much for bolstering our squad in January….what is that – 3 out and 1 in! FFS
446 GeordieDan // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:39 PM
April the 30th we play Liverpool-Carroll is going to feel the wrath of the Geordie nation he’s betrayed!
I hope he rots!
447 Obafan // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:43 PM
What an ending to this window this has become. To be honnest I’ve got mixed feelings about this:
SAD:
It’s a shame to get rid of Carroll, cause he has got so much potential, banged in the goals for us and was working very hard.
NOT SAD:
Sorry but I still think Carroll isn’t that good as most on here think he is. He works very hard and scores quite easily; but I also think he was quite lucky during the first half of the season (now I really hope I’m right). We got more money than what he is worth; tho’ we don’t know if it will be spend on bringing in new players (really hope so). I have got lots of question marks about Carroll’s injury; perhaps the club didn’t want to play him, cause they didn’t want to lose him. If it really is true about his transfer request than it is really below everything (saying you don’t wat to leave and a couple of hours later asking to leave…).
I don’t know whether Carroll will be a success in Liverpool; I really don’t know that because IMO he is not as good as most say he is.
448 obaflamey // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:46 PM
If the whole £35m was given for transfers, who would people sign?
449 ToonOz // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:55 PM
Aguero and Taarabt
450 ToonOz // Jan 31, 2011 at 11:57 PM
If they were ready to throw 12 mill at Insomnia, why not through 6 mil on Taarabt instead?
451 stuckdownsouth // Feb 1, 2011 at 12:59 AM
Gutted, gutted, gutted but get a grip!
Forced out the door my arse, he was on 1m a year to for the team he supported as a boy. He had 4.5 years left on his contract. WHY does he have the right to suddenly ask for 4m a year, and then claim he is forced out because the club doesn’t pay it.
I’ll be at Fulham on Wednesday and Arsenal on Saturday, because this is my club, and unlike Our former no9, no-ones going to pay me millions change.
452 leedodd // Feb 1, 2011 at 9:26 AM
This is Probably the way it Happened- He said I don’t want to Leave But if I go I will be on £80 grand a week so Fat Mike I want you to Match it . He would have been told We wont Match it so His Agent would have said hand in a Request to force Ashleys Card and He was Told ok Andy You Can Go . His Agent Will Be able to Retire Now and Andy will be on Good Money . We Should have had a New Striker Lined Up anyway – So we Get 2 Players out and 2 Crocked Players in HBA is Injured and Ireland has an Injury Still . Typical Newcastle – When Harry was at St James Last week Why did we not tap him for a Player Then ?? ASHLEY DO ALL THE GEORDIE NATION A FAVER AND GET OUT OF TOWN AND SELL THE CLUB ASAP .
453 doddsy // Feb 1, 2011 at 7:44 PM
WOW WOW WOW EVERYONE ON THIS POST IS GOIN TO FIND THIS VERY INTRESTING
AND AFTER U HAVE READ THIS YOU KNOW IT WASNT ASHLEY FAULT AND ITS ALL CARROLL
PLEASE READ TO SHUT EVERYONE UP…
“When I knew [Liverpool's interest] was real and that there was a chance for me to come here I knew it was a great opportunity and I had to take it,” Carroll told the club’s official website.
“Liverpool is a big club which is going places and this is a chance to show what I can do. What I did at Newcastle has got me here and now I have to carry it on with Liverpool.
“It’s a great feeling. The No.9 is a big number and the one I wanted. To get it at Liverpool is a great feeling.
“Liverpool is a massive club and it’s nice to be wanted by a club like this, never mind turning up and being here with everyone around.
“They have spent a lot of money on getting me here and I just want to repay them for what they have spent. I want to win trophies with this club and help push us forward.”
FROM THE MAN HIM SELF THOUGHT HE DIDNT WANT TO GO?
